EPIC Players LA Presents Give My Regards to Cabaret! A Neuroinclusive Cabaret, November 12 and 13 at Vista Del Mar

In a significant milestone marking its tenth anniversary, EPIC Players LA is set to open its 2026-2027 season with "Give My Regards to Cabaret! A Neuroinclusive Cabaret" on November 12 and 13. The performances will be hosted at the Glorya Kaufman Performing Arts Center located within Vista Del Mar in Los Angeles.

EPIC Players, a nonprofit organization dedicated to empowering Neurodivergent and Disabled artists, continues its mission of inclusivity and representation in the performing arts. Founded in 2016, the company operates both in New York City and Los Angeles, fostering professional opportunities through a diverse range of productions including mainstage shows, cabarets, and educational programs.

This upcoming cabaret event is designed to spotlight the talents of EPIC’s Los Angeles ensemble, who will interpret selections from Broadway’s iconic songbook alongside original narratives. The two-night run is distinctive in its programming, featuring different casts and set lists on each evening to showcase the breadth of the company’s creative capacity.

Broadway performers Eric Peterson, Steven Booth, and Isabella Souza de Moore will join forces with EPIC’s Neurodivergent and Disabled artists on November 13. Souza de Moore, noted for her role in the national tour of "Annie," will perform alongside the EPIC Players on the first night, providing a bridge between mainstream Broadway and neuroinclusive theatre.

The event’s lineup includes a wide array of EPIC artists, among them Devin Morrissey, recognized from "Love on the Spectrum," Bella Zoe Martinez, an acclaimed writer and performer, and Chelsea Darnell, who also works as a casting producer on the same series. This diverse group reflects the company’s commitment to elevating voices often marginalized in the entertainment industry.

Ticket pricing is set at $35 for general admission, with VIP options available for $55, which include priority seating and a complimentary drink. The performances will begin at 7:30 p.m., with doors opening an hour earlier to accommodate audience arrivals.

Beyond the cabaret, EPIC Players LA has outlined a series of forthcoming projects for the season. March 2027 will see the debut of EPIC LA Underground Storytelling at The Crow in Santa Monica, a collaborative event with Storyectomy educators that will feature original stories developed by EPIC artists over six weeks.

The season will culminate with a mainstage musical production titled "Between the Lines," based on the novel by Jodi Picoult and Samantha van Leer. Scheduled for June 2027, this show explores the boundaries between fiction and reality through the experiences of a teenage protagonist and her imaginary prince, featuring music and lyrics by Elyssa Samsel and Kate Anderson.

In addition to theatrical endeavors, EPIC Players LA plans to engage in philanthropic efforts, participating in a December 17 fundraiser for The Ed Asner Family Center. This organization provides vital mental health and enrichment services for neurodivergent individuals and their families, aligning closely with EPIC’s mission.

Overall, EPIC Players LA’s upcoming season not only celebrates a decade of supporting Neurodivergent and Disabled talent but also advances their visibility on prestigious stages. Through these carefully curated events, the company continues to challenge industry norms and open pathways for underrepresented performers, asserting that inclusivity enriches the artistic landscape.
